Socializing Is Fun

UVM is unique in that campus life is very much intwined with the Burlington community. Local farmers and businesses contribute to UVM in various ways and many local vendors participate in the seasonal fairs and markets that are open to the public.

Place for Everyone

My school has multiple activities fairs throughout the year to spark interest and get people to be actiu have. It's easy to join some sort of club, sport, or society and it's because of that involvement that you'll find where you belong. While most people form bonds with people on their floor, your clubmates are the people you have something in common with (an interest) and that'll open doors for you. It's your key to discovering your niche and the social scene as well.
